enablemeplz | February EMP Meme

ENABLEMEPLZ
meme goes up on the last Saturday of every month
FOR GAME ADS:

➤ Put an ad up with the characters / crew / pairings / fetish you want for your game under the correct game header. This meme is primarily going to be focused on DWRP games but IJ and LJ games are allowed.

➤ PLEASE NOTE A RULE CHANGE HERE. ABSOLUTELY NO obnoxious coding (no font size > size 4 or 3 "big" tags, no oversized banners (they must be 250px in height or less), no blinking text, no obnoxious table html that doesn't collapse easily, no sparklies, no large pictures). Use all the colors you like, but please remember 3 "big" tags is the limit and that's only for headers or title text rather than for all the text in an ad.

FOR GAME QUESTIONS:

➤ RPers interested in a game can create a header for the game and ask questions about that game that aren't easy to find on faqs, such as the actual pace vs. what's listed/what kind of plots are run/if the game leans more towards plotty or slice of life/if a game leans more towards network or logs, etc. Both anon questions and anon answers are welcome in this section just like in the rest of the meme.

➤ This thread is not for speaking about wank or drama in a game. There are anoncomms that exist for that. This thread is specifically for general questions about a game that rpers want to get perspective on from players already in the game. Answers can be slightly negative (such as saying app response is slow or that the plots are repetitive or similar things) but this should at least be worded politely. Unnecessary vitriol, any mention of personal drama or wank, or mod teams/individual mods/players being singled out, will be screened and/or deleted.

FOR CHARACTER ADS:

➤ Put up an ad about the characters you are offering. For PSL/1-on-1 ads, there is a separate subthread but for character ads for games, post directly to the meme post. Others will comment to you with the games/casts they want you to join.

➤ There is a "Find a Castmate" section, where you can talk about a cast you play in at a game, and try to lure people to join it. Not all games post to the meme or have a "wanted" section, so players that want to tempt people to their cast on their own can use this section for it. Please format this the same as the PSL/1-on-1 section, where you post the canons in your subject. For the actual text of the ad you must use the "Find a Castmate" form provided at the bottom of this post so that these ads don't get huge. When listing who's currently in a cast, please do this in sentence form (with commas) rather than in list form.

➤ ABSOLUTELY NO obnoxious coding, with the same rules as the Game Ads Section above.

➤ If you're recommending a game to someone, try to match your suggestion to their needs. It's okay if part of your game rec is copy-pasted (such as what the game's about), but at least some part of the rec must be personalized to their ad. Try not to recommend the same game to every single ad, either. Ad spam that isn't individualized in some way will also be screened.

IN GENERAL:

➤ Don't be a dick. This isn't one of the anoncomms, so any snide comments or unnecessary commentary on the RP plans of others will be screened.

Players interested in a game can post a header for the game and ask questions that players in that game can respond to. Please see the instructions/rules for this section in the post above.

How Newbie-To-DWRP friendly is Zhautas?

Like, is it a game that someone without much experience in DWRP would be good starting off in? Or is it the type of game you should only try if you’re experienced with DWRP games already?

not a newbie so ymmv but there's talk about it being very friendly. we have a lot of out of dwrp implants last i checked

Hi I'm a relatively new player to DW (just a few months now) and new to Zhautas too and I've found it very friendly and easy to adjust to. If you let people know you're still learning the DW style I'm sure everyone will be full of advice. If you have any questions about transitioning to DW feel free to PM me, it was a process but I feel pretty settled now!

How Newbie-To-DWRP friendly is LifeAftr?

Like, is it a game that someone without much experience in DWRP would be good starting off in? Or is it the type of game that you should only try if you’re experienced with DWRP games already?

What currently running games are the most Newbie-To-DWRP friendly?

By that, I mean the easiest for someone who hasn’t ever played in a DWRP game to start off in.

populationyou might be a good starting game. Really proactive mods, player base is pretty friendly.

There are a few issues with pacing that made it hard for late intro-ers this last app period to get involved, but the players have been pretty civil talking to the mods about it and they just did a poll asking for people's feelings on it. The mods are really flexible and willing to fix things.

So it's definitely a place where people aren't likely to harsh on you for needing to pick things up, especially if you tell people up front you're new. The mods are new to modding too so people have been trying to help them get things running smoothly.

It's a horror game set in Silent Hill, with monsters and puzzles and survival elements.

not sure if you're the same anon but zhautas has a reputation for being pretty solid as a starter game. baby's first dwrp, transitioning into the community etc.

I wasn't new to DWRP when I apped, but Mask or Menace was the game I joined after not doing RP for years. I suspect it'd be good for people new to DWRP too. The only stumbling block is the years of lore, but I never had a hard time picking up what I needed to know.

Is familiarity with FFXV good enough for a player to put their character in DPSCheck, or should players specifically be familiar with FFXIV?

I have only played FFXV Pocket Edition, and I’m not sure if that means I understand the workings of Final Fantasy well enough to play in a different Final Fantasy based setting or not.

hey, anon! honestly, we don't have a lot of hard rules over at dpscheck, since it's not a game — just a memebox / dressing room, where there's no app requirement or anything like that.

that said, the community is specifically xiv-themed, and a lot of our posts reference xiv's setting very heavily. since xiv is really different from xv (especially in terms of technology and language), i do think that it might be difficult or confusing to rp with certain prompts and characters if you are only familiar with xv and haven't played or extensively researched xiv. hope that helps!
